Digital Learning  Blended Learning Implementation Guide Digital Learning Now!, February 2013 This is the fifth in a series of interactive papers offering guidance on the adoption of Common Core State Standards and the shift to digital learning. The authors assert that by the end of the decade, most U.S. schools will fully incorporate instructional technology — extending the learning day, expanding the reach of effective teachers, and increasing personalized learning. The paper presents a series of decisions to guide implementation. The authors intend to capture and update best practices as schools make the shift. Education leaders and practitioners are encouraged to submit comments and engage with the authors through their websites, blogs, and social media.
